Some mornings it just seems like you do not have time to get everything done before rushing out of the door especially your makeup.

First thing in the morning, you usually shower. After you took your shower and washed your face, the first and most important step of your make up routine is to moisturize. Moisturizer is a very important step in your skin care routine because it sets up the base that you are going to be applying your make up to. If your skin is not conditioned properly then your makeup will not stay in place for the duration of your day. Before proceeding with your other cosmetics, you will want to let the moisturizer sink in for about a minute or so. While you are waiting for the moisturizer to hydrate your skin you will want to take this time to pull out and organize the rest of the cosmetics that you are planning on using.

Once your moisturizer has absorbed into your skin you will want to apply your foundation. You can take your index finger and use that to place several dots of foundation around your face. From there you will want to blend in the color with either a foundation brush, cosmetic sponge, or simply your fingertips.

There are so many great affordable cosmetic brands out there like Maybelline, Rimmel, Loreal, and Revlon that you will be able to purchase a fantastic foundation for your skin that won’t cost you an arm and a leg.

After you have created a flawless complexion with your foundation apply makeup to your beautiful eyes. Choose a neutral eye color and apply it over the entirety of the lid. If you are looking for the easiest shade to use, pick one that is close to your eyelids natural color. After that, you need to put on your mascara to instantly open and brighten your eyes.

Once you have attended to your eyes then you will want to start to work on your lips. Choose a neutral lip color that is a little deeper than your natural lip color and apply that. Again, by choosing a neutral colored makeup to apply you will be applying colors that blend in and compliment your natural appearance, which will keep you from having to do a lot of extra shading to make it look polished.
